“Do not be
quickly provoked in your spirit,
for anger resides in the lap of
fools.”
~ Ecclesiastes 7:9 ~
“A patient man
has great understanding,
but a quick-tempered man displays folly.”
~
Proverbs 14:29 ~
“A gentle answer
turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
~ Proverbs 15:1

“A fool gives
full vent to his anger,
but a wise man keeps himself under control.”
~ Proverbs 29:11 ~
“Better a
patient man than a warrior,
a man who controls his temper than one
who takes a city.”
~ Proverbs 16:32 ~
“Get rid of all
bitterness,
rage and anger,
brawling and slander,
along with every
form of malice.
Be kind and compassionate to one another,
forgiving
each other,
just as in Christ God forgave you.”
~ Ephesians 4:31 ~
“My dear
brothers, take note of this:
Everyone should be quick to listen,
slow
to speak and slow to become angry,
for a man's anger does not bring
about the righteous life
that God desires.”
~ James 1:19-20 ~

ReplyDeleteI think as women, we deal with so much stress. The little things that men think are mundane and insignificant we see as the details in everything. Thank you for writing these down! The reminder that God is in control even through the anger, is much needed! http://www.satisfactionthroughchrist.com
